[India] Protests: Peaceful protest

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. Local shopkeepers in Bhambla, Reasi district of Jammu and Kashmir, held a peaceful protest on April 2, 2025, demanding road improvements and tar surfacing for deteriorated local infrastructure.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates and whether road conditions continue to deteriorate in the broader region.

Watch points

• Monitor for additional protests in Jammu and Kashmir over infrastructure conditions that could indicate broader regional grievances
• Track local government response to road repair demands, as unaddressed infrastructure issues could expand to affect larger transport corridors
